predictable and boring

Rating: 3/10 (18 July 2005)

I watched 'The Island' tonight and was disappointment. It was one of the few movies I went in to watch without any expectations and research and I curse myself for that.
The theme has been dealt with so many times and in such good fashion that it was unbearable to watch the movie after a certain point.
Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson put in decent performances but the plot really lets them down. ITs extremely predictable after a while and the action seems wasted. The movie loses steam as the concept is not unique and neither are the sequences. I'm sorry to say but I wouldn't really recommend this movie.
